POLICEMAN HUSBAND, NOW IN CUSTODY FOR KILLING HIS CHILD

Remember the story I brought to you by PUNCH, about the policeman that killed his baby and then crushed his wife’s legs? Read here.

According to PUNCH, the police corporal, Lucky Ikharia, has been arrested and detained by the police.

It was learnt that after stabbing himself, Lucky hospitalised himself at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital, Idi Araba, Mushin on the day of the incident. One of the nurses, who pleaded anonymity, said the policeman had claimed it was some armed robbers who attacked him, killed his son and wounded his wife.

Dupe’s elder brother, Mr. Segun Akiode, told our correspondent that the family had exhausted all their resources on the treatment, adding that the only police visitors they received were from the Akinpelu Division on Sunday.

He said, “Just this morning (Thursday), her condition worsened. As the nurses wanted to administer drugs to her, she began to bleed. She became very weak, and fainted. But as of his afternoon, she has begun to regain her consciousness.

“Ever since the incident happened, it was only the policemen from the Akinpelu division who had come to show some sympathy. We have yet to see anyone from Makinde Division where Lucky works.”
